Layla, 12 years old, VA | NEEDED BY 10/16

Wish submitted by:

Layla spent time in foster care before being reunited with her family, a huge milestone after a long road of change and uncertainty. Layla is a bright, imaginative kid who loves reading fantasy novels, drawing her own comic characters, and putting on little performances for anyone who will watch. She's also become something of a big sister figure to younger kids in her neighborhood, always looking out for them. Layla has shown incredible resilience through so much upheaval, and even as she settles back into life with her family, she and her household could use extra support and encouragement as they rebuild together.

As Layla and her family settle back into life together after reunification, they're rebuilding routines, filling gaps, and adjusting to a new normal after time apart. An Amazon gift card would let Layla pick out something meaningful to her, whether it's new books for the fantasy series she loves, art supplies to keep creating her comic characters, or something else entirely her own. For a girl who has weathered so much change and is now navigating the exciting but sometimes bumpy road of reunification, having something that's simply hers, chosen by her, can be a small but powerful source of joy and stability. Your gift would give Layla a little extra brightness during this meaningful new chapter with her family.
